Looking for a way to portalize a couple of apps that run on disparate web servers. I have the apps running in IFRAMEs right now, but I want to create a single login scenario (they are all protected with Basic over SSL), so that as a user's apps come up, there is no need for the login from the respective IFRAMEs to appear (some run up to five apps). Is there anyway to use LWP (or some other methods) to do the authentications with the IFRAME apps on behalf of the user ?

DIAGRAM:

                          |IFRAME 0|
                           /
                    basic+ssl($user,$pw0) 
                         /
                        /
$user---login-->|PORTAL|======Basic+SSL($user,$pw1)===|IFRAME1|
